The suspect, identified as Edmilson Rosas Lima—also known by the aliases ‘Mago’ or ‘Buga’—was found in a high-end apartment.

Lima, identified as the leader of the ‘Bonde do Maluco’ (BDM) faction and responsible for illegal activities in the Arenoso neighborhood of Salvador, Bahia, faced outstanding warrants related to organized crime, drug trafficking, and homicide.
